An AEW star recently opened up about his injury which had him on the sidelines for 21 months. The star being discussed is Kyle O'Reilly.
Kyle O'Reilly made his return to AEW after almost two years at the Revolution 2024 Pay-Per-View. He was on the shelf due to neck and arm issues.
The 37-year-old star came out during Roderick Strong's International Championship victory celebration at the Revolution 2024 Pay-Per-View. However, he was not thrilled to see the rest of the Undisputed Kingdom alongside his former tag team partner. After making multiple attempts to include Kyle in his faction weeks later, Strong snapped and attacked O'Reilly, to set up a match at the upcoming AEW Dynasty Pay-Per-View.
